Chapter 2
Who Am I and WHY should you be listening to me?? First things first, I should introduce myself to you so you know that I'm not just some quack (not that there's anything wrong with a quack, most of my close friends are quacks!). My name is John Skorczewski and I'm 23 years old. When I was 19 and a freshman in college I decided to quit school and start my own business, and I've been completely independent ever since. When I quite college, I started a number of businesses (mostly online businesses) with no budget and worked (and lived) out of a shared trailer. At first I made enough money to pay the rent, then slowly I made enough to pay the rent and eat. (what a concept!) Then I moved out of the trailer into a 6 bedroom house (with some room mates but still a big deal at the time) then finally to a high rise apartment in the middle of Down Town Chicago's Gold Coast Neighborhood. Talk about making a long story short, but that's a whole other book! As of the writing of this book, I'm still 23 and will never really have to work another day in my life. I've sold off most of my companies, at huge profits. (I still have passive investments in some of the companies that I sold, but I only own stock, I no longer deal in the day to day operations of them). I don't have to work anymore but I still love running companies. I still fully own one corporation, Market-Tek Enterprises, Inc. which takes most of my time and energy now. In this age of dot com busts I've been extremely lucky. The 18 hour work days helped, but luck err ok, it was the 18 hour work days that did it. And of course, coffee has earned a mention here! Without coffee...okay okay, enough about me already. Let's talk about making you wealthy by selling your web site.
